Meetup!

Boston-area Pervocrats! Exciting news!

In conjunction with the blog Manboobz, we are holding a Pervocracy-Manboobz Joint Meetup!

We'll meet at 6:00 PM on Friday the 17th, at the Prudential Center food court in downtown Boston (access via the Green Line or a short walk from Back Bay Station on the Orange Line; parking at the Pru is obscenely expensive and not recommended). We'll talk about issues of interests to crotchety humorless feminists, frivolous fun-feminists, sexually deviant feminists, and "I have a big complex objection to the word feminist but am basically an ally"s alike!

Apologies for the short notice; if I get a big response from people saying "I could've made it, but" I might organize a second one.

I have a lot of smart and snappy readers and I know quite a few of you are in Boston; come on out and say hi.

I would have liked to go! It would involve a train ride and an overnight stay (this is not a big deal, this is basically me going anywhere - boonies!) and I'm of course working Thursday/Friday/Saturday so it is really a no-go for that particular date. But I would like to be kept abreast (aboobz?) of further developments.

Rogan - The meetup should be trans-friendly--everyone I know who's RSVPed so far is--and since it's ultimately my meetup, I can talk to (or kick out) anyone who acts transphobic or clueless. I'd love to see you there.

Oh my...I am PEA-GREEN with (the good kind of) envy. I wish I could join the party...sounds like a great opportunity to make some new friends and talk A LOT about favorite subjects. Please give us a debrief afterwards and maybe the idea will spread to regional meetups? :)
